SDA DNAC

Dkiptoo — Tue, 10 Dec 2024 08:16:36 GMT

Am having a SDA network that where provisioning was done with DNAC, edge nodes are stacked 9300 switches with two 9600 core switches. I can manage them them from the DNAC, but not full, as some commands are blacklisted. How do I go about it, and also how can I ssh to individual switches over the network. I cannot ping them yet they are accessible from the DNAC

Hello @Dkiptoo,

The main way to push additional configuration to devices is through network profiles & templates. In short - you add the desired configuration to templates and attach them to network profiles, the configuration will then be added the next time you provision the devices. See the following documentation: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/cloud-systems-management/network-automation-and-management/dna-center/2-3-5/user_guide/b_cisco_dna_center_ug_2_3_5/b_cisco_dna_center_ug_2_3_5_chapter_01000.html

Edit: You cannot SSH to the devices through the DNAC/Cat-C UI. If you don't have any other options(jump-hosts etc.) you can use the DNAC as a jump-host by logging into it's CLI and SSHing to your devices from there.

What exactly are you looking to configure?
